MANY silent and probably, many an
audible curse has been uttered by the
editors since the Interstate commerce
bill became a law. With most of the
provisions of that bill we are in hearty
accord, and.it may he that even the fea-
lures that now appear Objectionable will
after due trial, be found beneficial. At
least we are disposed to see its practi-
cal workings before offering any cen
sure. The bill was intended to protect
those who most stand in need of pro-
lection from the greed of mighty cor
porations, and if it shall conserve that
purpose we shall be satisfied to endure
"a little personal inconvenience.

WrrH this issue the Democrat Ell

WITH this issue the Democrat en-
ters upon the third year of its exist
ence. We can truthfully say that
never has the outlook for the paper
been so flattering as now. We regret
that we are not ready on this natal
day of the paper to present it to our
readers as an all home print, together
with some other changes that we have
decided to make. But we are not
ready, though we hope to be when we
issue again.
1t is hardly necessary for us to say
what course the paper will pursue; for
we take it for granted that every one
knows that so long as it continues
under its present editorial manage
ment it will be democratic to the core.
Since we have had editorial charge of
the Democrat we have never wavered
from that faith. In the future as in
the past we shall labor for the ad-
vancement of Great Bend and Barton
county. On that subject we know
no democracy or republicanism.
To all who have so generously aided
us in the past, either by word or deed,
we have none but the kindest feelings
and the happiest recollections. We
shall labor in the future as in the
past to give our patrons a progressive
news paper with honest convictions
and courage enough to express them.
Whosoever aids us in building up this
kind of paper shall be our brother.
